Adoption Form

The Raptor Adoption Program

If you would like to adopt a bird, $30.00 will adopt one raptor for one year.

If you would like to adopt all birds, $250.00 will adopt all birds for one year.

For an additional $20 we will include Stan Tekiela's new guidebook called "Birds of Prey of the Midwest" (our Northern Harrier, Marshall, is in this book on page  89!)

You or your group will receive this following things and more:

  • A photo of your bird(s) with adoption cerfiticate(s)
  • An information sheet on your adopted birds(s)!
  • A monthly online newsletter
  • All Bird Adoption - One hour educational presentation with all the raptors as well as all of the above.  Ask for a brochure regarding educational programs offered.

Instructions: If you would like to adopt a raptor(s), please print out our online form, fill out it correctly and send it back to the address provided.
